Paraguay fans in Asuncion watched in disappointment as France knocked Paraguay out of the World Cup with a 1-0 victory in a round of 16 match decided by a Kylian Mbappe penalty.
"Feeling again what I felt when I was a child was incredible. Even though we lost the match, Paraguay gave us back our joy and made us forget all the problems we have. And this does not end here, because from now on Paraguay is making history. I feel simply euphoric, it's a real joy to be able to share it, to celebrate and experience this victory. I believe France has several really nice matches before it and that we can continue on this good start. I think it's a great start."
